Google has joined companies like Dell, Intel, Lenovo and LG to back the Universal Stylus Initiative (USI), bringing the total number of partners to over 30. The initiative was founded in 2015 to create standardised touch-screen styluses that work across multiple brands’ devices. (USI Pushes On)
Five other companies joined the initiative alongside Google last week: 3M Touch Systems, Lattice Semiconductor, Maxeye Smart Technologies, MyScript and Tactual Labs.
Apple, Microsoft and Samsung have so far kept their distance from the initiative.
